2. Remove hose(s) from air outlet(s) (G).

Lubrication and Oil

ENGINE

1.The engine was filled WITH oil at the manufacturer. Check engine oil level before operating unit. If necessary, fill engine to the appropriate level with recommended oil, see engine's instruction manual supplied by engine manufacturer for correct procedure.

2.Add fuel to engine. See engine's instruction manual supplied by engine manufacturer for correct procedure.

WARNING: Risk of explosion or fire. Gasoline vapor is highly flammable. Refuel outdoors preferably, or only in well-ventilated areas. Do not refuel or check gasoline level while the engine is running. Do not store, spill, or use gasoline near an open flame, a source of sparks (such as welding), or near operating electrical equipment.

AIR COMPRESSOR

The air compressor pump was filled WITH oil at the manufacturer. Check air compressor pump oil level before operating unit. See Compressor Pump Oil under Maintenance.

Compatibility

Air tools and accessories that are run off the compressor must be compatible with petroleum based products. If you suspect that a material is not compatible with petroleum products, an air line filter for removal of moisture and oil vapor in compressed air is required. NOTE: Always use an air line filter to remove moisture and oil vapor when spraying paint.

Location

WARNING: Risk of breathing. Exhaust from the gasoline engine contains deadly carbon monoxide, which is odorless and toxic. Operate engine only in well ventilated areas.

CAUTION: Risk of property damage. In order to avoid damaging the air compressor, do not allow the unit to be tilted more than 10º when operating.

Place air compressor at least 4 feet (1.2 m) away from obstacles that may prevent proper ventilation. Keep unit away from areas that have dirt, vapor and volatile fumes in the atmosphere which may clog and gum up the intake filter and valves, causing inefficient operation.

HUMID AREAS

In frequently humid areas, moisture may form in the pump and produce sludge in the oil, causing running parts to wear out prematurely. Excessive moisture is especially likely to occur if the unit is located in an unheated area that is subject to large temperature changes. Two signs of excessive humidity are external condensation on the pump when it cools down and a “milky” appearance in compressor oil. You may be able to prevent moisture from forming in the pump by increasing ventilation or operating for longer intervals.

NOISE CONSIDERATIONS

Consult local officials for information regarding acceptable noise levels in your area. To reduce excessive noise, use vibration mounts or silencers, relocate the unit or construct total enclosures or baffle walls. Contact a DEWALT service center or call 1-800-4-DEWALT for assistance.

TRANSPORTING

WARNING: Risk injury from lifting. Unit weighs more than 160 lbs. (72.6 kg) Do not move or lift without assistance.

CAUTION: Risk of property damage. The wheels and handle do not provide adequate clearance, stability or support for pulling the unit up and down stairs or steps. The unit must be lifted, or pushed up a ramp.
